Of course I look for balanced stats... no point in having huge damage with shit acc and RoF. Which brings me to what I really look for in a weapon... in-hand performance. The stats on a given weapon may look great, but sometimes it just doesn't perform the way you expected. Maybe it has massive recoil, or shitty slow reload speed. These types of things can be deal-breakers for me. If it performs well, and gets the job done in an efficient, quick and timely manner, its a keeper for me.

Price is about the last thing that should be considered IMO... things like a big scope or a blade accessory can artificially inflate the resale value of a shitty gun.

to me it's the stats of the gun with the power to kill the enemy and how fast it's reload

damage, decent rate of fire and decent reload-if one of those 3 is insanly good at the cost of the other, so be it

like mcfeelie said-its a weapon not a purse-

its pretty gay to pick up something just because of how it looks, ive left plenty of good shit lay because i dont use it-why pick up something that you're not going to use (i barely trade, so theres no barter value either)

That's what your mom looks for. XD

Anyway... It's not just one stat, it's the combination of stats that makes a gun great. On some guns I may go for max power, some max accuracy, other max fire rate, etc. It just depends on what gun it is.
